The factors affecting the shape of the molecules are the bonded e and the lone pairs of electrons
Diatomic molecules have 2 atoms combined. The way they line up is determined by the desire to keep each atom as far away as possible from all the other electrons in the molecule apart from those being shared. The only way to do this is to be a linear molecule, so the atoms are side by side.
Without given a specific molecule there is not any way to determine the shape. Beryllium chloride consists of beryllium in the middle and a chlorine on each side, and is in the shape of a straight line.
It has 4 bonding pairs and no lone pairs so it has a tetrahedral shape.
generally looking at the structures of the molecules we can say wether that molecules is polar or non polar. generally linear and square planer molecules are non polar. further more diatomic molecules like (N2,O2,H2,I2,F2,Cl2,Br2) are non polar. all nobel gases are non polar.Yes, polar bond can give rise to a polar molecule, depending on the molecular shape, causing different types of changes.
Lone pairs do not affect the shape of diatomic molecules, and Lone pairs are electrons that are not in bonds. Lone pairs do not affect the shape if they are not on the central atom.

The chemical compositon and the chemical bonds affect the shape of molecules..
NH3's shape is trigonal pyramidal, which has 1 e lone pairs and 3 bonding pairs, while BH3's shpe is trigonal planar, with 0 e lone pair and 3 bonding pairs. It's the force that electron lone pairs exert that pushes the molecules further and the repulsion force of lone pairs that aided in changing the shape of the molecules. Hence, the shape are different ...
Water molecules have a bent shape.
The chemical compositon and the chemical bonds affect the shape of molecules..
In a water molecule, there are two lone pairs of electrons connected to the oxygen. The lone pairs push the hydrogen atoms, creating a bent shape. In CO2, however, there are two double bonds and no lone electrons on the central atom, hence the molecule has a linear shape.
The correct answer is: Bent.
The shape of molecules is determined by the number of bonding and non-bonding electron pairs around the central atom. The VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory is commonly used to predict molecular geometry based on electron pairs' repulsion. The arrangement of these electron pairs results in different molecular shapes such as linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, and more.

Yes it is. (because of the lone pairs on N)
Repulsion of the unshared electron pairs (2)and the bonded pairs (2) around the central oxygen atom. Repulsion of these 4 electron pairs attempts to form a tetrahedral shape. Describing the molecular shape, we ignore the unshared electrons and just describe the shape of the molecule based on the location of the atoms, thus bent.
